Art Installation “Post Office Plaza” — A Symbol of Heritage and Modern Identity
This installation was specially designed for K&D, the owner of the business center located in the historic Post Office Plaza building in Cleveland. It serves both as branding and as an artistic bridge between the building’s rich history and its modern function.
Materials and Symbolism
The installation is made of stainless steel and granite, with its surface coated in an elegant copper color, harmonizing with the architectural elements of the building’s façade. The eagle, a key feature taken directly from the building’s façade, has been integrated into the installation. This iconic symbol connects the building’s past with its present, honoring its historical significance.
Meaning and Purpose
This is not just a decorative element, but a fully-fledged public art object, designed to become a focal point for residents and visitors alike. During the day, it stands as a sophisticated sculptural element, while at night it transforms into a vibrant light art piece with dynamic illumination. The lighting highlights the name “Post Office Plaza” and elegantly showcases the logos of the building’s key tenants, making them visible from afar.
Artistic Integration
The background of the installation features a specially designed perforated pattern of dots, symbolizing the flow of information — a tribute to the building’s history as a post office, a place where thousands of letters and stories once crossed paths. At night, the gentle backlighting brings this pattern to life, creating a captivating interplay of light and shadow, further enhancing the concept of heritage merging with innovation.
Functionality
In addition to its artistic value, the installation functions as a branding wall, serving as an elegant platform to display the logos of the building’s anchor tenants. This makes the installation a true landmark for pedestrians and visitors, creating a striking and memorable visual identity for Post Office Plaza in the very heart of Cleveland.
